Objective To profile gut microbiome-associated metabolites in serum and investigate whether these could distinguish individuals with colorectal cancer (CRC) or adenoma from normal healthy individuals. Design Integrated analysis of untargeted metabolomics by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry metagenome sequencing paired faecal samples was applied to identify significantly altered abundance patients CRC adenoma. The ability discriminate between tested targeted metabolomic analysis. A...

Objective— Homocysteine can accelerate the senescence of endothelial progenitor cells or (ECs) via telomerase inactivation and length shortening. However, underlying mechanism is unclear. Here, we investigated whether homocysteine promotes by reducing expression activity human reverse transcriptase (hTERT) DNA methylation to reduce ECs activity. Approach Results— When compared with primary umbilical vein grown under standard conditions, chronic treatment showed accelerated upregulation p16,...

Abstract miRNAs have been established as critical layer of regulation during tumorigenesis; extracellular are extraordinarily stable; and, quantitative reverse transcript polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) provides a sensitive platform for quantifying with broad dynamic range. Herein, we aimed to establish serum miRNA signature diagnosing cervical cancer (CC). In this study, recruited cohort 184 CC, 186 intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) patients and 193 healthy control subjects. qRT-PCR was...

FUN14 domain-containing 1 (FUNDC1), as a novel member of mitochondria-associated endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membranes associates with mitochondrial division and mitophagy. However, the expression profile functional roles FUNDC1 remain largely unclear in human cancer biology, including breast (BC).Immunohistochemistry western blot analysis were used to determine BMI1 polycomb ring finger oncogene (BMI1). CCK8, cell counting transwell assays analyze proliferation, migration invasion,...

Modification of the novel N6-methyladenine (m6A) DNA implicates this epigenetic mark in human malignant disease, but its role atherosclerosis (AS) is largely unknown. Here, we found that leukocyte level m6A not 5mC modification was decreased with increasing carotid plaque size and thickness 207 AS patients as compared 142 sex- age-matched controls. Serum low-density lipoprotein (LDL) levels were associated progression thickness. Both LDL also independently negatively related to level....

Our previous work shows that the stem cell factor SALL4 plays a central role in embryonic and leukemic cells. In this study, we report expression was higher drug resistant primary acute myeloid patients than those from drug-responsive cases. addition, while overexpression of led to resistance lines, cells with decreased were more sensitive treatments parental This our investigation implication its side population (SP) cancer SP compared non-SP by 2-4 fold various malignant hematopoietic...

Univariate multivariate Cox regression analyses performed signature, selected establish risk model group. The signature COVID-19 validated group.The combined with following 5 indicators: neutrophil count, lymphocyte procalcitonin, age,...

Background:Elevated homocysteine (Hcy) levels might play a role in the development of essential hypertension (EH). Telomere dynamics provide valuable insight into pathogenesis age-related diseases. The contribution Hcy to leukocyte telomere length (LTL) shortening EH and underlying mechanism was examined.Methods Results:LTL (ratio copy number [T] repeats that single [S] gene, T/S ratio) inversely associated with age patients (n=258) healthy controls (n=137), but significantly decreased level...

KRAS and TP53 mutations are the two most common driver in patients with lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), they appear to reduce latency increase metastatic proclivity when a co-mutation (KRAS/TP53-mut) occurs. However, molecular mechanism involved is unclear. N6-methyladenosine (m6A), abundant RNA modification mammal mRNAs, plays critical role tumorigenesis. Here, we used genomic transcriptomic data found that only LUAD KRAS/TP53-mut, but not an individual mutation, appeared exhibit poor overall...

Abstract Background Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are a group of heterogeneous diseases with variable clinical course. Predicting disease progression is difficult due to lack specific molecular marker(s). SALL4 plays important roles in normal hematopoiesis and leukemogenesis. transgenic mice develop MDS prior acute myeloid leukemia (AML) transformation. However, the role human has not been extensively investigated. In this study, we evaluate diagnostic/prognostic value by examining its...

Abstract MiR-494 plays an important role in several types of human cancers, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Although the miR-494 has been investigated studies, expression profile and underlying mechanism are still poorly understood. In this study, we found that overexpression promoted proliferation colony formation NSCLC cells reduced their sensitivity to cisplatin-induced apoptosis. By using microarray Dual luciferase reporter assays, further showed caspase-2 (CASP2) is a...
